Definitions

  • the subject matter relates to a separating device for a power line, in particular a motor vehicle power line, comprising at least one separating means arranged spatially between a first and a second connection part when the separating device is in a closed state.

If this is not ensured, short circuits with briefly very high currents can occur in the event of an accident. The high short-circuit currents can lead to the formation of arcs. This must be reliably prevented in order not to endanger the safety of the vehicle occupants.
  • separating devices are often used in which the power lines are cut through by pyrotechnic separating devices in the event of an impending short circuit.
  • the separation of the power lines with the help of the pyrotechnic disconnection devices is usually achieved either by mechanically cutting the power line or by accelerating a bolt out of a cylinder, with a current path being formed between the bolt and the cylinder in the closed state, which is created by the disconnection device, eg the bolt is severed.
  • the disadvantage of the conventionally used pyrotechnic disconnection devices is the fact that at the moment a current-carrying line is disconnected, arcs can form between the gap at the disconnection point, as a result of which the connection parts remain electrically connected to one another at least temporarily. This is often the case, particularly in high-voltage applications in electric or hybrid vehicles, since the formation of arcs is particularly favorable here due to the high currents and potential differences.

  • a copper material is preferably used where there is only a limited installation space available and at the same time high operating temperatures are present and high mechanical demands are placed on the material.
  • An aluminum material is used in the field of power transmission wherever weight or costs are to be saved.
  • the connecting element can preferably be formed as a flat cable. It goes without saying that, in accordance with another exemplary embodiment, round cables can also be used instead of flat cables. Nevertheless, a A combination of round and flat cables can be provided.
